A delicious recipe for a delicious snack: pull apart bread filled with mozzarella and cream cheese. This is nice on Sunday, at a party, always a great appetizer.
A real nice dish as appetizer that is delicious any time. A filled pull apart bread! Filled with a mixture of mozzarella and cream cheese. And sprinkled with fresh herbs. Sounds delicious?
Because ...
- You do not have bread baking machine, you knead the dough for 10 to 15 minutes by hand or mixer with dough hook. The dough is then flexible and elastic. Let it rise for an hour at a warm place and proceed with the recipe.
- To geft a soft bun, you use melted butter as a topping. Did you know that this recipe is also delicious with herb butter.
- you put the buns under a damp tea towel and then under a plastic wrap and let them rise in a warm place. This way the dough does not dry out.
- you measure the ingredients well. When baking weighing your ingredients is very important for the end result.
- When adding salt and yeast take them as far apart as possible. Yeast will die if it comes in contact with pure salt. Even better add the salt after kneading for 5 minutes to be safe.
Substitutes
- If you don't have buttermilk on hand, substitute it with 250 ml milk and 1 teaspoon vinegar
- substitute rosemary and basil with herbs of your choice like parsley, chives or time
Delicious
with
- This is really delicious with a glass of wine. When you make an appetizer buffet (which we do often on Sundays) serve some extra garlic butter (to smear on top) or a herb dipper.
Storage
- This bread is best when eaten on the day of baking.
- It can be stored at room temperature when wrapped in aluminium foil. Bake the bread 10 minutes at 220 degrees before serving (and leave the aluminium foil around it while baking).
- This bread can be freezed for a maximum of 2 weeks. First wrap it in aluminium foil and then in plastic foil before storage. When you want to serve it bake it directly from the freezer (first remove the plastic wrap, leave the aluminium foil on) for 20 minutes at 220 degrees Celsius.
